Another crackpot idea I guess, but over the years it keeps popping into my head that The Square is the key to understanding other dimensions. Geometrically that is how we get there.
It occurred to me that that may be the reason one finds Squares in other cultures and in other ages.. even China. Keys to hidden knowledge are everywhere in plain sight (but like Bible Codes only understood after the discovery or event).
I don't understand it, but that thought just won't go away.
When I take that thought into the lodge room I see it reinforced by the Brn being required to 'square the lodge' when we take it 'up' or 'down'.
Any thoughts on this anyone?

I get it as an unfoldment (of what I don't know). The point 'unfolds' and increases to all that is. ( Point within a circle icon again).
Point-line-square-cube- ?
Point-line-2D -3D - 4D etc ?
The line moves at 90 deg to become a plane, the plane moves at 90 deg to become something with volume. What happens if all sides of a cube or rectangle are moved at 90 degs and then the resulting unimaginable image is again unfolded in like manner?
And if the point is everywhere, then the line must needs be an image of something that is limited to movement in one direction. What if the point moved in all directions and the resulting lines then proceeded to unfold as above?
Now my mind's eye is seeing a Blazing Star.
As all is energy anyway, I guess my answer to your question would be that the Square is an illustration of the movement of energy that forms patterns recognised by our 3D eyesight. If parts of us exist at higher levels of unfoldment then maybe we sense those rather than see them... unless one has activated the Eye that is One - the Pineal - that is.

Quite so. Look for the point of light in the floor of the temple when the lodge is opened. All being well it unfolds to a mosaic pavement that extends from E to W and N to S.
As well you should be. Remember that the monsters that haunt children's nightmares all exist on the Astral. Monsters from the Id, to quote from Forbidden Planet.
They say Japan was made by a sword. They say the old gods dipped a coral blade into the ocean, and when they pulled it out four perfect drops fell back into the sea, and those drops became the islands of Japan. I say, Japan was made by a handful of brave men. Warriors, willing to give their lives for what seems to have become a forgotten word: honor. -The Last Samurai

what would u like to understand about other dimensions?
the reason u find the square in several (unrelated) cultures, is the same for finding hammer-like devices; theyre handy tools.. everyday objects being used to teach through metafor is also common.. the key is the ability to see the metafor.. the object itself is relatively unimportant..
What happens if all sides of a cube or rectangle are moved at 90 degs and then the resulting unimaginable image is again unfolded in like manner?
tesseract?
the singularity (point) xpanding into 3d spacetime is the basis for the big bang theory btw..
And if the point is everywhere, then the line must needs be an image of something that is limited to movement in one direction.
a line could be a moving point seen over a period of time, or joined points standing still.. a curved line is also possible, so i dont see why movement should be limited to 1 direction.. even movement in time within 3d spacetime can be curved using gravity..
(my contribution here is the result of contemplation upon what continually came to my mind unbidden) Doesn't mean that it is true or even makes sense. Just reporting an experience.
It might be an interesting exercise if you ponder the point for 10 or 15 minutes just before retiring and see what you come up with.
